• demo Raspberry Pi Avocado by Gasman
• My first ever attempt at GPU coding, written on a combination of language (Python) and platform that has a distinct lack of tutorials for it. Yeah, that was a good idea. :-)
  
  I put together a cross-platform wrapper, so the release package *should* also work on grown-up computers with Python, PyOpenGL and an mp3-and-png-supporting build of PyGame installed.

• 64k Vectrex Where Have All The Pixels Gone? by Carnegie Mellon Computer Club [web]
• I think I've joked at least once about the Vectrex being the most unlikely platform to get a Nyancat port. This alone deserves a thumb.

• 4k ZX Spectrum Hairy Plotter by HOOY-PROGRAM [web]
• Eye: Charset, what charset? Check the source :-)
  
  (but yes, you're right - this intro was all about "how can I fill up 4K in 24 hours? Code? Nah. Use it all on the music..." And even then I only got to 3K. To date I've never actually done a 4K that's seriously pushed the size limit and required me to work hard at cutting bytes - but now I'm really keen to do one...)

• wild Animation/Video Moleman 2: The Art of the Algorithms by Flame Film [web]
• One of the best explanations of the demoscene for outsiders I've ever seen. The pacing is spot on... you could show someone the first 5-10 minutes or so, and give them an excellent impression of the demoparty atmosphere and the motivations of the people in it, without overwhelming them with the secondary details (realtime, sizecoding, oldskool platforms) - or they can watch the whole thing and learn those things in full detail, without it ever becoming dry.

• demo ZX Spectrum mescaline synesthesia by deMarche
• Sdw / Marq: It's a multi-loading demo, so if you're loading from tape you need to stop and start the tape at the relevant points. The demo isn't really intended to be run from tape, though - it's presented as a continuous sequence (which is why there are no "start/stop tape" prompts) and the 5-minute wait between parts probably ruins the effect, but it works in principle... :-) For best results it should be run from disk, or something that can flash-load TAP files (such as the DivIDE).

  There actually are reasons why some things in the world are made mostly by men, and vice-versa. Don't mess with it.

  
  If you're being serious, go die in a fire.
